Hi John, Try the lsblk(1) command; it should show all block devices on your system, whether mounted or not. Mounted devices, whether mounted by mount(8) or not, will have their mount points listed. In your case, I suspect that your CD-ROM is mounted somewhere like this: "/run/media/jjj/<name-of-CD-ROM>". The actual block device should be sr0 or sr1, assuming you have two optical drives on line. Anyway, I hope this helps. --Dale -- Don't anthropomorphize computers.
